This is interesting because I think writing style should be like good drumming. You only notice it when you're meant to. But (true this) yours is one of only 2 pages where I actively/consciousnessly admire the style. One is FdB, for occasional David Foster Wallace type flair. Yours I envy because it's so spare.
As long as you aren't in the maddening habit of starting sentences with "So", when they are not a clear logical consequence of the previous sentence, I'm sure your academic and speaking style is fine!
One hears this all the time on TV or the radio when a pundit or expert is being interviewed. Sometimes they start every reply with "So", and it drives me (and I suspect most normal people) potty! It is as if they are starting by announcing "so be it", as if their reply is unassailable wisdom.
